Canon 5DS and 5DS R Image Samples

If you are wondering about how images look from the newly announced Canon 5DS and 5DS R DSLR cameras, below you will find the official image samples from Canon USA for both cameras. Let’s take a look at the 5DS images first (apologies for wrong orientation on vertical images – our system could not properly handle orientation on such large files):

Canon EOS 5DS + EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM @ 170mm, ISO 100, 1/125, f/8.0
Canon EOS 5DS + EF24-70mm f/4L IS USM @ 28mm, ISO 800, 1/125, f/4.0
Canon EOS 5DS + EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM @ 38mm, ISO 200, 1/6, f/5.6
Canon EOS 5DS + EF200-400mm f/4L IS USM @ 329mm, ISO 200, 1/250, f/4.0

And here are some sample images from the Canon 5DS R:

Canon EOS 5DS R + EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM @ 35mm, ISO 400, 1/15, f/11.0
Canon EOS 5DS R + EF16-35mm f/4L IS USM @ 23mm, ISO 200, 1/500, f/11.0
Canon EOS 5DS R + EF500mm f/4L IS II USM @ 500mm, ISO 400, 1/3200, f/4.0

In short: detail level is incredible, reminding me of medium format look in terms of resolution and detail. Particularly impressive are images #1 and #4 from the Canon 5DS, along with all images from the Canon 5DS R. Looks like the modern Canon lenses are capable of resolving enough detail from the 5DS / 5DS R cameras. The only image that looks a bit blurry in the corners is image #2, which was shot with the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS at f/4. I bet stopping down the lens to f/5.6 and smaller would have produced a much sharper image.
